17、ollege Students Hire Cleaners? Recently, some college students were reported to hire cleaners to do laundry and cleaning in the dorm. The report has immediately sparked a heated debate. Personally, I believe that such practice should not be encouraged at universities. Firstly, university students ha
18、ve the capability to do the laundry and therefore do not need a helper. These are the simplest family chores parents teach their children to do as a way to cultivate their independence. Hence, it is a bit ironic for those young adults, who always claim that they are totally independent of their pare
19、nts, to hire others to do it in this respect. Secondly, I do not think they have the right to dispose of the money from their parents in this way. Most of the Chinese students are not financially independent, with a large proportion of their living expenses and tuitions covered by their parents. Thu
20、s, to pay for the work they are definitely able to do with their parents hard-earned money is not justifiable.

23、at blood is to our body. Nobody could live without money. According to a recent survey conducted by one authoritative information corporation, an estimated 67% of college students think saving money is a good habit. On the contrary, the rest are convinced that spending tomorrows money is better. As
24、far as 1 am concerned, saving money best suits me and renders me the greatest enjoyment. Admittedly, spending tomorrows money, as advocated by many, plays an active role in our economic life. It can spur people to make more money to enjoy life. And consumerism brought about by this trend can of cour

The best way to secure a safe and sound life and be free from poverty, want and anxiety about future is, of course, in current situation, to have a
26、 certain amount of money in hand. In our daily life, various things unexpected and emergent may fall upon us.

29、ter. As an English major, I wish we could have an English song contest during the arts festival. The reasons are quite clear.

According to the feedback, students of our university are very interested in such activities, and they hope to have more chances to take part in this kind of activities. So I think an Engli
31、sh song contest can serve this purpose. A further reason for my suggestion is that such an activity can surely promote the atmosphere of English learning. If CET-4/6 or TEM-4/8 examinations are the only driving force for us to study English, the learning process will become dull and boring. An Engli
